Goodwill Impairment Test

FASB ASC paragraph 350-20-35 requires impairment be
tested annually.
All goodwill must be assigned to a reporting unit.
Impairment should be tested in a two-step process.
Step 1: Does potential impairment exist?
Step 2: What is the amount of goodwill impairment?

E2-10: On January 1, 2010, Porsche Company acquired the net

assets of Saab Company for $450,000 cash. The fair value of
Saab’s identifiable net assets was $375,000 on this date.
Porsche Company decided to measure goodwill impairment using
the present value of future cash flows to estimate the fair
value of the reporting unit (Saab). The information for these
subsequent years is as follows:
Present Value Carry Value Fair Value

Disclosures Mandated by FASB

FASB ASC paragraph 805-30-50-1 requires:
1. Total amount of acquired goodwill and the amount
expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
2. Amount of goodwill by reporting segment (if the

acquiring firm is required to disclose segment
information), unless not practicable.
Slide
2-11

FASB ASC paragraph 350-20-45-1 specifies the
presentation of goodwill (if impairment occurs):
a. Aggregate amount of goodwill should be a separate line
item in the balance sheet.
b. Aggregate amount of losses from goodwill impairment
should be a separate line item in the operating section
of the income statement (unless some of the
impairment is associated with a discontinued
operation).
Slide
2-12

When an impairment loss occurs, FASB ASC paragraph
350-20-50-2 mandates note disclosure:
1. Description of facts and circumstances leading to the
impairment.
2. Amount of impairment loss and method of determining the

fair value of the reporting unit.
3. Nature and amounts of any adjustments made to

impairment estimates from earlier periods, if significant.
Slide
2-13
Other Required Disclosures

FASB ASC paragraph 805-10-50-2 states that
disclosure should include:
The name and a description of the acquiree.
The acquisition date.
The percentage of voting equity instruments acquired.
The primary reasons for the business combination,
including a description of the factors that contributed to
the recognition of goodwill.
Slide
2-14
Other Required Disclosures

FASB ASC paragraph 805-10-50-2 states that
disclosure should include:
The fair value of the acquiree and the basis for measuring
that value on the acquisition date.
The fair value of the consideration transferred.
The amounts recognized at the acquisition date for each
major class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The maximum potential amount of future payments the
acquirer could be required to make.
Slide
2-15
Other Intangible Assets

Acquired intangible assets other than goodwill:
Limited useful life

 Should be amortized over its useful economic life.
 Should be reviewed for impairment.
Indefinite life
 Should not be amortized.
 Should be tested annually (minimum) for impairment.

Treatment of Acquisition Expenses

FASB ASC paragraph 805-10-25-23 excludes
acquisition-related from measurement of consideration
paid.
both direct and indirect costs are expensed
the cost of issuing securities is also excluded from the
consideration.
Security issuance costs are assigned to the valuation of
the security, thus reducing the additional contributed
capital for stock issues or adjusting the premium or
discount on bond issues.

Acquisition Costs—an Illustration

Suppose that SMC Company acquires 100% of the net assets of Bee
Company (net book value of $100,000) by issuing shares of common
stock with a fair value of $120,000. With respect to the merger,
SMC incurred $1,500 of accounting and consulting costs and $3,000
of stock issue costs. SMC maintains a mergers department that
incurred a monthly cost of $2,000. Prepare the journal entry to
record these direct and indirect costs.
Professional Fees Expense (Direct) 1,500

Merger Department Expense (Indirect) 2,000
Other Contributed Capital (Security Issue Costs) 3,000
Cash 6,500

Pro Forma Statements and Disclosure Requirement
Pro forma statements serve two functions in relation

to business combinations:
1) to provide information in the planning stages of

the combination and
2) to disclose relevant information subsequent to

the combination.
Slide
2-19
LO 5 Use of pro forma statements.
Illustration 2-1
Slide
2-20
If a material business combination occurred, notes to

financial statements should include on a pro forma basis:
1. Results of operations for the current year as though the

companies had combined at the beginning of the year.
2. Results of operations for the immediately preceding

period as though the companies had combined at the
beginning of that prior period if comparative financial
statements are presented.
Slide

Explanation and Illustration of Acquisition Accounting
Four steps in the accounting for a business

combination:
1. Identify the acquirer.
2. Determine the acquisition date.
3. Measure the fair value of the acquiree.
4. Measure and recognize the assets acquired and

liabilities assumed.
Slide

LO 6 Valuation of acquired assets and liabilities assumed.
Value of Assets and Liabilities Acquired

 Identifiable assets acquired (including intangibles other
than goodwill) and liabilities assumed should be recorded at
their fair values at the date of acquisition.
 Any excess of total cost over the sum of amounts assigned
to identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill.
 Under current GAAP, in-process R&D is measured and
recorded at fair value as an asset on the acquisition date.

Bargain Purchase
When the fair values of identifiable net assets (assets less
liabilities) exceeds the total cost of the acquired company,
the acquisition is a bargain.
In the past, FASB required that most long-lived assets be
written down on a pro rata basis before recognizing a gain.
Current standards require:
 fair values be considered carefully and adjustments
made as needed.
 any excess of acquisition-date fair value of net assets
over the consideration paid is recognized in income.
Slide
2-28
Bargain Acquisition Illustration

When the price paid to acquire another firm is lower than the
fair value of identifiable net assets (assets minus liabilities),
the acquisition is referred to as a bargain.
Any previously recorded goodwill on the seller’s books is
eliminated (and no new goodwill recorded).
A gain is reflected in current earnings of the acquiree to the

extent that the fair value of net assets exceeds the
consideration paid.

Contingent Consideration in an Acquisition
Purchase agreements may provide that the purchasing

company will give additional consideration to the seller
if certain future events or transactions occur.
The contingency may require

 the payment of cash (or other assets) or
 the issuance of additional securities.
Current GAAP requires that all contractual contingencies, as well

as non-contractual liabilities for which it is more likely than not
that an asset or liability exists, be measured and recognized at
fair value on the acquisition date.
Slide
2-32
LO 7 Contingent consideration and valuation of assets.
Illustration: P Company acquired all the net assets of S

Company in exchange for P Company’s common stock. P Company
also agreed to pay an additional $150,000 to the former
stockholders of S Company if the average post-combination
earnings over the next two years equaled or exceeded
$800,000. Assume that goodwill was recorded in the original
acquisition transaction. To complete the recording of the
acquisition, P Company will make the following entry:
Goodwill 150,000
Liability for Contingent Consideration 150,000
Slide
2-33
Illustration: Assuming that the target is met, P Company will

make the following entry:

Cash 150,000
On the other hand, assume that the target is not met. The
adjustment will flow through the income statement
in the subsequent period, as follows:

Income from Change in Estimate 150,000
Slide
2-34
Illustration: P Company acquired all the net assets of S

Company in exchange for P Company’s common stock. P Company
also agreed to issue additional shares of common stock to the
former stockholders of S Company if the average post-
combination earnings over the next two years equalled or
exceeded $800,000. Assume that the contingency is expected
to be met, and goodwill was recorded in the original acquisition
transaction. Based on the information available at the
acquisition date, the additional 10,000 shares (par value of $1
per share) expected to be issued are valued at $150,000. To
complete the recording of the acquisition, P Company will make
the following entry:
Goodwill 150,000
Paid-in-Capital for Contingent Consideration 150,000
Slide
2-35
Illustration: Assuming that the target is met, but the stock

price has increased from $15 per share to $18 per share at
the time of issuance, P Company will not adjust the original
amount recorded as equity. Thus, P Company will make the
following entry
Paid-in-Capital for Contingent Consideration 150,000

Common Stock ($1 par) 10,000
Paid-in-Capital in Excess of Par 140,000
Slide
2-36
Adjustments During the Measurement Period

The measurement period is the period after the initial
acquisition date during which the acquirer may adjust the
provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date.
The measurement period ends as soon as the acquirer has

the needed information about facts and circumstances
(or learns that the information is unobtainable), not to
exceed one year from the acquisition date.
Slide
2-37
Contingency Based on Outcome of a Lawsuit

Consideration contingently issuable may depend on both
 future earnings and

 future security prices.
In such cases, an additional cost of the acquired company
should be recorded for all additional consideration
contingent on future events, based on the best available
information and estimates at the acquisition date (as
adjusted by the end of the measurement period).
Slide
2-38
Leveraged Buyouts
A leveraged buyout (LBO) occurs when a group of

employees (generally a management group) and third-party
investors create a new company to acquire all the
outstanding common shares of their employer company.
 The management group contributes the stock they hold

to the new corporation and borrows sufficient funds to
acquire the remainder of the common stock.
 The old corporation is merged into the new corporation.
 The essence of the change suggests that the economic

entity concept should be applied; thus (LBO) transactions
are to be viewed as business combinations.
Slide

LO 8 Leverage buyouts.
Deferred Taxes in Business Combinations
To the extent that the seller accepts APPENDIX A

common stock rather than cash or debt
in exchange for the assets, the sellers may not have to pay
taxes until a later date when the shares accepted are sold.
When the acquirer has inherited the book values of the
assets for tax purposes but has recorded market values
for reporting purposes, a deferred tax liability needs to be
recognized.
Slide
2-40
Illustration: Taxaware Company has net assets totaling

$700,000 (market value), including fixed assets with a market
value of $200,000 and a book value of $140,000. The book values
of all other assets approximate market values. Taxaware Company
is acquired by Blinko in a combination that qualifies as a
nontaxable exchange for Taxaware shareholders. Blinko issues
common stock valued at $800,000 (par value $150,000). First, if
we disregard tax effects, the entry to record the acquisition
would be:
Assets 700,000
Goodwill 100,000
Common Stock 150,000
Additional Contributed Capital 650,000
Slide
2-41
Illustration: Now consider tax effects, assuming a 30% tax rate.

First, the excess of market value over book value of the fixed
assets creates a deferred tax liability because the excess
depreciation is not tax deductible. Thus, the deferred tax
liability associated with the fixed assets equals 30% $60,000
(the difference between market and book values), or $18,000.
The inclusion of deferred taxes would increase goodwill by
$18,000 to a total of $118,000. The entry to include goodwill is
as follow:
Assets 700,000
Goodwill 118,000
Deferred Tax Liability 18,000
Common Stock 150,000
Additional Contributed Capital 650,000
